MTC HRD Thread

[bhooglees]

I just came from a maternity leave. I went back to work on June 18, 2011. We are being paid semi-monthly, with a cut-off period of 9th-23rd and 24th-8th of each month. So this 30th of June, my salary is covering the cut-off of 9th-23rd of the month. My salary was computed as five days of work (18-22, 23rd being rest day) and nine days of absence. (9-17) We get paid P9, 000 semi-monthly. So my net pay for the 30th was just more than P1, 500.00. Our finance manager was insisting that their computation was correct because I was "absent" during the days I was on my ML. They said that SSS all ready paid me on those days, so they have to deduct those days against my salary. I need help on what to do. Was that even legal? Thanks!

 

I think its a yes. The maternity benefit you got from SSS covers your salary for the time that you were in ML. THoug if you have VLs available, you could've filed part of your ML through that. hope I helped

hi sir, you seem to be knowledgeable about this stuff. so I would like to ask you a question somehow similar to the query above. my mom is now 58 years old and she had a stroke a few months ago. Now her company is planning to retire her (more than 30 years of service) because she still has not recovered from her illness. The company has no retirement plan but agreed to give her half a month's salary for every year of service. Is there any article in the Labor Code that pertains to this?

 

ART. 284. Disease as ground for termination. – An employer may terminate the services of an employee who has been found to be suffering from any disease and whose continued employment is prohibited by law or is prejudicial to his health as well as to the health of his co-employees: Provided, That he is paid separation pay equivalent to at least one (1) month salary or to one-half (1/2) month salary for every year of service, whichever is greater, a fraction of at least six (6) months being considered as one (1) whole year.

good day sir.

 

i'd like to know if DOLE entertains anonymous complaints of an employee against his or her employer regarding working longer than 8 hours without pay, not having sss and other mandatory benefits, no vacation leave and no sick leave, and no 1 hour lunch breaks? especially if the employee is still working in the company.

 

thanks.

You can try sending an anonymous letter to the DOLE's Bureau of Labor Standards which is mandated to inspect companies to ensure that they comply with existing labor laws and policies. Just make sure that you cite specific cases that could be verified from the companies records or confirmed by other employees whch would serve as basis for whatever action the bueau may take against your employer.

I'll just pm you council hehe it's very confidential

oh your message box is full

might as well post it here:

 

 

 

I currently work 12 hours but I just get an 8-hour salary. There are many discrepancies in our office. We are working under government but we are only a part of a department so we are "contractual" workers. We are also "no work, no pay" meaning for holidays and other emergencies, we don't usually get our salaries. The administrator and our cashier is her daughter. No one dares to expose the anomaly. As I remember in the Government Code there shouldn't have any relatives up to the 3rd consanguinity in the same department. We never get our salaries on time. We are under a contract but some of us are working for 4 hours only. They sign the payroll 8 hours but they only get 4 hours from it. Meaning the admin gets all of the excess salaries. There has been another anomaly about resigned employees. They never inform the HR about it. I knew an employee who resigned to go abroad for 2 years, the admin has been getting all his salary while he was in the other country. And the school supplies provided are not properly distributed to the teachers. Is there a way we can somehow voice it out. It's really hard because even the people in the municipal office are mum about it because I think it is because of the ___________ who is a very good friend of the administrator.

As per RA 7641, Article 287 of the Labor Code has been amended, to provide for, among other things:

 

"In the absence of a retirement plan or agreement providing for retirement benefits of employees in the establishment, an employee upon reaching the age of sixty (60) years or more, but not beyond sixty-five (65) years which is hereby declared the compulsory retirement age, who has served at least five (5) years in the said establishment, may retire and shall be entitled to retirement pay equivalent to at least one-half (1/2) month salary for every year of service, a fraction of at least six (6) months being considered as one whole year.

 

 

 

 

what if contractual lang po, may kasamahan kasi ako na forced resigned ksi old age na daw. 64 ata sya nung hire sya then now 68 n sya hindi n daw sya irerenew. So pano po yun? Di ko rin alam if kabilang kami dyan ksi nga contractual kami are we under DOLE ba?

[Tokoy]

Wow! I've been out of this thread since I moved out of the country. Lot's of things have changed.

[hav0k]

Sir anong status mo ba sa company nung 5 years na na-mention mo? (project based or regular) If project based ka (being Head Tech) and ngayon they are eyeing you for a regular employment in a different position or department or function, i think legit yung ginawa nilang probationary status mo. Pero in practice talaga, we do consider that tenure for you to be a regular employee. though prerogative talaga ng employer yun.

[snaHlegaR]

Ask ko lang po.... my contract will expire by Dec. 31, 2013. And I am on leave until my contract expires. Magkakaproblem po ba ako in anyway if I sign a new contract within my leave period in a different company? I am from a government office (health department). Going to a BPO industry.

The good thing about our recruitment process is that, its one day and you would be informed if you pass every time you finish an interview or exam. I know how it feels for an applicant to wait for a day or 2 just to know if you passed or what. Other centers would also ask you to go back for another interview or exam not considering the amount of time and money spent for going back and forth. We at ibex respect/value your time and effort so please send me an email with your full name, cell number and number of years in the bpo industry at hulseye@gmail.com or a text at 09336643504 so that i can submit your info to our hr for the immediate scheduling of your initial interview.
